PSG make contact with Barcelona midfielder Arturo Vidal

PSG have made contact with the minders of Barcelona midfielder Arturo Vidal.

La Cuarta says PSG have registered their interest with Vidal's camp in recent days and are ready to move for the Chile international.

With Barca in a state of crisis after their Champions League humiliation at the hands of Bayern Munich, PSG see their chance to tempt Vidal away. Indeed, it's understood the midfielder has been transfer-listed by Barca in the last 24 hours.

PSG chief Leonardo values Vidal's experience and sees him as an ideal addition given the imminent summer departures of veteran pair Edinson Cavani and Thiago Silva.

Vidal, meanwhile, is also wanted in Italy, where Inter Milan are among clubs keen.
